Drake is entering into the boot sport with a Timberland collab, however don’t anticipate illseed to commerce in his yellow butters for OVO-branded lace-ups anytime quickly.

Illseed does one thing he by no means does. Analysis.

Drake and boots—two phrases I by no means thought I’d put collectively for investigative functions, however right here we’re. I really did analysis this time. I do know, I do know. Miracles occur every single day, B.

I heard/noticed a rumor. And I believed it was hilarious that Drake was allegedly cooking up his very personal line of premium boots. Naturally, my thoughts raced to 1 horrifying thought: was Drake about to drop his personal model of Lugz? That Birdman power? Would the boy dare? OH BOY! The ideas that ran via my deranged thoughts!

The advert I stumbled throughout had large boot power: daring, rugged, but in addition barely pretentious. I’m simply being trustworthy. That OVO owl was perched on the tongue of that boot prefer it belonged in a snowstorm industrial. I believed, “Is Aubrey about to go toe-to-toe with Timberland?” Truthfully, that’s one thing Drake would possibly attempt. He gave us scented candles, a Harry Potter necklace, and a poetry e book – why not?

However then, I did my Googles: that’s not what’s occurring.

Seems, the boot sport transfer is definitely a collaboration. Drake isn’t going towards the grain. He’s partnering with Timberland to make OVO-branded boots. Now that is sensible. I’m certain this Drake x Timbs mash-up has hypebeasts foaming on the mouth.

Would I put on them? Nah. Respectfully, as a loyal East Coast boot connoisseur, I’m sticking to the OG yellow butters. No owls and no deviations. Except it says AllHipHop on the aspect, I’m not .

And even this appears to be like loopy. AI sucks!

Within the frozen tundras of Canada, these boots would possibly hit completely different. And truthfully, I’m not mad at it. I simply don’t need to see Drake singing about heartbreak whereas lacing up his OVO Timbs.

And let’s not overlook the ghost of Birdman previous! Bro virtually introduced Lugz into rap historical past. These different boots had been the price range blessings for a lot of a hustler! If Birdman and Drake hadteamed up for some Lugz 2.0 collab, I’d’ve misplaced it.

-illseed out!
